Class KeyPairCodecFactory
A Factory class to instantiate key encoder/decoder instances.
static IKeyPairCodec | getInstance(String name) - Returns the appropriate codec given a composed key-pair generator algorithm
and an encoding format.
|
static IKeyPairCodec | getInstance(String name, int formatID) - Returns an instance of a keypair codec given the canonical name of the
key-pair algorithm, and the identifier of the format to use when
externalizing the keys.
|
static IKeyPairCodec | getInstance(String name, String format) - Returns an instance of a keypair codec given the canonical name of the
key-pair algorithm, and the name of the encoding format to use when
externalizing the keys.
|
static IKeyPairCodec | getInstance(Key key) - Returns an instance of a keypair codec given a key.
|
static Set<E> | getNames() - Returns a
Set of supported key-pair codec names.

getInstance
public static IKeyPairCodec getInstance(String name)
Returns the appropriate codec given a composed key-pair generator algorithm
and an encoding format. A composed name is formed by the concatenation of
the canonical key-pair algorithm name, the forward slash character
/
and the canonical name of the encoding format.
IMPORTANT: For backward compatibility, when the encoding format
name is missing, the Raw encoding format is assumed. When this is the case
the trailing forward slash is discarded from the name.
name
- the case-insensitive key codec name.
- an instance of the keypair codec, or
null
if none
found.
getInstance
public static IKeyPairCodec getInstance(String name,
int formatID)
Returns an instance of a keypair codec given the canonical name of the
key-pair algorithm, and the identifier of the format to use when
externalizing the keys.
name
- the case-insensitive key-pair algorithm name.formatID
- the identifier of the format to use when externalizing the
keys generated by the key-pair algorithm.
- an instance of the key-pair codec, or
null
if none
found.
getInstance
public static IKeyPairCodec getInstance(String name,
String format)
Returns an instance of a keypair codec given the canonical name of the
key-pair algorithm, and the name of the encoding format to use when
externalizing the keys.
name
- the case-insensitive key-pair algorithm name.format
- the name of the encoding format to use when externalizing the
keys generated by the key-pair algorithm.
- an instance of the key-pair codec, or
null
if none
found.
getInstance
public static IKeyPairCodec getInstance(Key key)
Returns an instance of a keypair codec given a key.
- an instance of the keypair codec, or
null
if none
found.
getNames
public static final Set<E> getNames()
Returns a
Set
of supported key-pair codec names.
- a
Set
of the names of supported key-pair codec (Strings).
